Zhang Hao saw that his sons were talking endlessly, so he quickly interrupted:
"Okay, mom is tired and needs to rest. You two will go home with grandma. Mom, dad, and brother will probably be able to go back in a few days."
"Dad, I want to stay with mom."
Little Pudding said coquettishly.
"You two are still young, dad can just stay." Zhang Hao patted his youngest son on the head.
Little Pudding said pitifully: "Then can we come over to see mom and brother tomorrow?"
Anyway, without daddy here, the trap shop can’t open.
Zhang Hao thought for a while and did not refuse again.
It was obvious that Big Pudding and Little Pudding were somewhat repulsive towards the appearance of their younger brother. They could just take advantage of these two days to calm down the two little guys.
In short, this matter cannot be ignored.
…
After seeing off his family members, Zhang Hao met his second uncle and his entourage at the entrance of the hospital.
"Second uncle, why are you here?"
"What are you talking about? Your wife has given birth, can't we come over and take a look?"
Zhang Chongyi joked with a smile.
Zhang Hao shook his head and explained with a smile: "That's not what I meant. I mean it will be the same if you come over tomorrow. There is no need to be in such a hurry."
"What does this have to do with it? It's only a few steps anyway. As soon as we received your father's good news, we rushed over immediately." Zhang Chongyi was a little unfazed.
They are temporarily living in Huimin Building, which is not very far from the hospital. The reason why they have not rented another house is mainly because their jobs have not been confirmed yet.
In particular, the eldest son and others have already gone to Minde for inspection, and there is a high probability that they will stay there in the future.
Zhang Chongde then sent his blessing: "Xiao Hao, congratulations on becoming a father again. Among your generation, you currently have the most sons."
"I originally wanted to have a daughter, but it turned out to be a son. From now on, there will be a lot of trouble in the family."
Zhang Hao couldn't help but sigh.
"What's so good about a daughter? When she grows up and gets married, she'll know that she'll feel bad for her."
Zhang Chongde waved his hand.
Fortunately, Zhang Aiyu and Zhang Aiyun's family hadn't arrived yet. Otherwise, upon hearing this, even if I didn't fall out, my heart would feel knotty. After all, both families gave birth to daughters.
Zhang Aixue suddenly said angrily: "Who said that girls must marry? Isn't it possible to recruit a son-in-law? Based on the conditions of Xiaohao's family, what kind of son-in-law can't be recruited?"
"Second Aunt's words make sense. Today's young people don't like to live with their parents. In fact, boys and girls are the same. The key is to live close to each other so that they can be taken care of easily." Zhang Hao agreed with a smile.
Everyone nodded, and Zhang Chongyi immediately asked:
"Xiaohao, have you chosen the child's name?"
"Took it." Zhang Hao nodded, "The nickname given by her grandma is An'an, which means peace and security; the nickname given by my dad is Zhang Guodong."
"This name is just like my uncle's style."
The speaker was Zhang Hao's third cousin Zhang Chen, Zhang Chongyi's second son, and Zhang Xu's biological brother.
Zhang Chongyi glared at his younger son: "Zhang Guoji, Zhang Guoxuan, Zhang Guodong, and there can be another Zhang Guoliang in the future. They are in the same line. What's wrong?"
"Dad, 'Zhang Guodong'... sounds like a name from your era, and it's easy to have the same name. I estimate there are at least tens of thousands of Zhang Guodongs across the country."
Zhang Chen shrugged.
Zhang Hao quickly stopped the second uncle who was about to get angry: "Second uncle, there is nothing wrong with what third brother said. I checked online and found that there are more than 50,000 people with the same name in the local area alone. If my father hadn't insisted, I would have wanted to change my name.
.”
"Xiao Hao, isn't your father-in-law a university professor? Why don't you let him help you come up with a meaningful name?"
Zhang Aixue couldn't help but wonder.
"Second aunt, my father had thought of the name Zhang Guodong ten years ago. Second uncle guessed it right. If An An has a younger brother, his name will indeed be Zhang Guoliang."
Zhang Hao smiled bitterly.
The old man became stubborn and no one could persuade him.
"What if it's a girl?" Zhang Aixue asked curiously.
"The girl's name is okay, Zhang Guoxin, Xin Xin Rong Xin." Zhang Hao replied.
Zhang Chongyi waved his hand and said earnestly: "Xiao Hao, as the old saying goes, it is both vulgar and elegant. I think the name Guodong is quite good. There is no need to follow the crowd."
"Second uncle, don't worry. Even if the three brothers don't like it, I won't help them change their names." Zhang Hao nodded seriously.
"You are really filial, boy."
Zhang Chongyi nodded with satisfaction.
Soon, a group of people arrived in front of the ward. Yang Huaqing was sleeping soundly, so they did not go in and just took a look through the glass window.
"Xiao Hao, these eggs, American ginseng and brown sugar were all collected together by our family. There is no way... conditions are limited... the items are a little short, don't mind."
Zhang Chongyi showed a hint of embarrassment.
American ginseng was bought from the market.
The brown sugar was leftover from their family’s meal.
The eggs were given by my eldest brother, which means they have returned to their original owners. They cannot be kept or bought.
Zhang Hao quickly shook his head: "Second uncle, it's fine if you guys are here. What gifts can you bring? Everyone knows about our family's situation. There is no shortage of these things. We have received them according to your wishes, so we should take them back!"
"How can this be done? No matter how difficult it is for our family, we still need this little thing."
"Yes, this is etiquette."
Zhang Chongyi and others waved their hands.
"How about this!" Zhang Hao picked up the American ginseng casually: "I will keep the American ginseng, and you can take the other two items back to replenish the health of the children at home."
"Xiao Hao..."
"Second uncle, listen to me, now is really not the time to be particular. We have to think about the future."
Zhang Hao interrupted directly.
Seeing his nephew's insistence, Zhang Chongyi did not continue to persuade him. To be honest, these two things were really hard for his eldest brother and his family to get their hands on.
…
August 20th is Kevin’s wedding day.
August 28th is the day when baby An An is one full moon, and the old Zhang family specially held a full moon party.
This time, aunt Zhang Aiyu and sister-in-law Zhang Aiyun's family were not absent, and sister-in-law Zhou Xiaofu's family also came. In addition, his uncle and aunt also persuaded their mother, and the two families chose it without any surprise.
move place.
At this point, the relatives on both sides of the family, except those who have passed away, have basically gathered together.
Zhang Hao also wanted to use the full moon wine to invite all his relatives over and have a gathering together.
Today, baby An An is the absolute protagonist, but the happiest people are Zhang Chongxin and Li Dajuan. The old couple finally settled a lot of worries.
After the banquet started, the elders gathered together and chatted about various household matters.
Zhang Hao talked about his cousin's plantation: "Brother, how is the progress at Minde?"
"Everything goes well and it should be put into production before the end of the year." Zhang Xu said excitedly.
During this trip to Minde, they not only gained a lot, but also fully realized the energy of their little cousin, which was far beyond imagination.
"I promised to accompany you to Minde before, but the time didn't happen. Why are you going back to Minde? This time I will accompany you."
Zhang Hao apologized.
Seriously speaking, the main reason is that Zhang Hao and the others are too anxious and unwilling to wait. According to his plan, they should go there in September.
After all, the most important thing is for a wife to have children.
Zhang Xu smiled and nodded: "Okay, it's a coincidence. Mayor Jiao asked me to bring you a message for him, and I want to invite you to inspect the work."
"Mayor Jiao is serious, I'm not the leader."
Zhang Hao waved his hand.
"Zhang Hao, Tongxinhui has invested so much money in Minde. It is normal for Mayor Jiao to invite you there. Don't be modest."
Zhang Kun couldn't help but interrupt.
Zhang Hao shook his head: "You say it's an inspection, but actually you want me to help solve a lot of troubles. To tell you the truth, I'm really afraid of going there."
It's because he thinks things too simply.
Investing in industry has never been an easy task. There are so many complicated things that make people's scalp numb. If he regrets taking medicine, he would rather not acquire Minde Times.
"Cousin, there is a saying from the other side that is very good. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Tongxinhui has invested so much money. It would be a pity if it fails."
Li Ningtao quickly advised.
"I understand, it's just a joke." Zhang Hao picked up his wine glass, clinked it with the other party, and then changed the subject: "You guys have been here for a month, right? What's going on over there in the Minde era?
Sample?"
“In general, it’s not bad or good!”
Li Ningtao thought for a while and replied.
"How do you say that?" Zhang Hao asked.
He hasn't been to Minde for more than half a year, and he doesn't know the real situation there.
"We had a brief chat with Mr. Zhou and found that the company is not short of orders, but due to the bad environment and this wave of energy crisis, the challenges it faces are also considerable."
Li Ningtao explained in detail.
Zhang Kun added: "Also, when we went there this time, we discovered a bad phenomenon. The people in the Tongxinhui generally seem to be not optimistic about the future and lack confidence. If this continues, there will definitely be problems."
"Really? I didn't expect there to be so many questions."
Zhang Hao looked thoughtful.
"So, Zhang Hao, don't wait any longer. Everyone is looking forward to your arrival as soon as possible!"
Zhang Xu sighed with emotion.
"Oh, I know."
After talking about starting a business, Zhang Hao took the opportunity to talk about everyone's work issues.
Zhang Hao first toasted Zhang Chen with a glass of wine: "Third brother, are you planning to start a business or go work for me?"
"I don't have as big ambitions as the bosses. I just need a stable job."
Zhang Chen holds a gun and a stick.
His eldest brother went a little too far this time. Although there were some minor conflicts between the two, it was nothing like that. The other party would rather bring an outsider than bring him, which was too embarrassing for him.
"Okay." Zhang Hao nodded, and then asked: "You know all the companies under my name, but I don't know which one you want to go to?"
"Shuguang New Energy, after all, it is a state-owned holding company. In a sense, it is equivalent to a public institution. It would be best if you can get in."
Zhang Chen expressed his thoughts.
In this current world, the system is still the most stable.
"No problem, but third brother, you are not a professional technician, you can only go to the logistics department..."
Zhang Chen waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, logistics is logistics. Your third brother and I graduated from high school and can't do scientific research. I still have this self-knowledge."
"Okay, then it's decided. Shuguang Company has a family building, and the conditions are pretty good. Third brother, you can take third sister-in-law and the others to live in it together."
"Thank you very much."
Zhang Chen smiled and cupped his hands towards the other party.
This is also an important reason why he chose Shuguang Company. After all, Zhucheng is the capital. If there is an allocated house, it is much better than renting a house or public rental housing.
Zhang Hao waved his hand: "Third brother, do you want to arrange a job for third sister-in-law too?"
"Isn't it troublesome?" Zhang Chen asked in surprise.
"It's a small matter. Third brother, you and third sister-in-law have a few days of rest. When I come back from Minde, I will arrange for you to join the company." Zhang Hao promised.
"No hurry, no rush, your business is more important."
Zhang Hao smiled, then looked at his eldest cousin: "Sister, where is your family? Are you starting a business? Or are you working?"
Zhang Xiuxiu had already discussed this with her husband, and said without hesitation: "Zhang Hao, your brother-in-law and I have never done business, so it would be safer to join a company."
"Sister, which company do you want to join?"
No surprises.
The cousin and his wife are ordinary office workers, and they have long been accustomed to the nine-to-five life.
"Can we join Haotian Group?"
The reason why Zhang Xiuxiu made this choice is very simple:
Firstly, the general manager of the company is Zhang Jiayi, and for the sake of relatives, he can take care of them to some extent; secondly, Haotian Group has good welfare, and can get extra rations, so the whole family is not afraid of going hungry.
Zhang Hao nodded: "Okay, I usually don't care about the group's affairs. You can go directly to my second sister and ask her to arrange specific work for you."
"Thank you, I'll go find Jiayi later."
Zhang Xiuxiu breathed a sigh of relief.
The brother-in-law in the lobby took the initiative to offer Zhang Hao a glass of wine.
Zhang Hao put down his wine glass, and then asked other families about their choices one by one, including his uncle and aunt's family.
After asking around, in general, most people chose to join the company, and only the two sisters from my aunt's family chose to continue doing business.
Zhang Hao's family borrowed 20 million.
Finally, it was Zhou Xiaofu's turn. Their family situation was more complicated.
"Xiaofu, do you want your family to move here too?"
Although Zhou Xiaofu was very moved, considering her husband, she had to decline politely:
"Brother-in-law, my father-in-law and mother-in-law are in poor health and need someone to take care of them. Let's wait and see in a few years!"
It's still the same reason as before.
Bai Jian said a few words of guilt, then patted his chest and promised: "Brother-in-law, don't worry, I won't let Xiaofu and her daughter endure hardship. If we really can't survive, we won't stand firm."
"Okay, if you encounter any difficulties, you must tell me."
Zhang Hao didn't force it.
"Brother-in-law, we can do it. Then my mother will also ask you to do the same."
Zhou Xiaofu picked up the wine glass and toasted Zhang Hao.
She was very lucky that her mother did not have to suffer hardships with their family. The conditions of her brother-in-law's family were ten thousand times better than theirs, as you could tell by looking at her mother's face.
"Why are you being polite to me? Remember to send the little sponge over when you have time. Let us stay in our home for a few more months and spend more time with mom. Mom nags about the little sponge every day."
Zhang Hao reminded me.
